    JACK DEL RIO HEAD COACH 19th NFL season/First season with Raiders College: USC | Born: April 4, 1963 Jan. 15, 2015 For Immediate Release Jack Del Rio Named Head Coach of the Oakland Raiders ALAMEDA, Calif. – Jack Del Rio has been named head coach of the Oakland Raiders, the club announced Thursday. Del Rio, who was raised in nearby Hayward, Calif., becomes the 19th head coach in the 55-year history of the franchise. The appointment begins Del Rio’s second tenure as an NFL head coach, having served in that role for the Jacksonville Jaguars for nine seasons from 2003 to 2011. Del Rio spent the past three seasons as defensive coordinator of the Denver Broncos. “After a thorough interview and evaluation process, we are excited to announce Jack Del Rio as the head coach of the Oakland Raiders,” said Owner Mark Davis. “I have no doubt that he will make a significant impact and help reach the goal of everyone in this building, which is to win championships.” “Jack Del Rio brings a strong leadership presence to this organization,” said General Manager Reggie McKenzie. “He has developed an excellent reputation as a coach in this league and we are happy that he is a Raider.” A coaching veteran of 18 seasons, Del Rio recently concluded his second stint as a defensive coordinator under Head Coach John Fox, as the two spent the 2002 season together in Carolina. Del Rio was part of three-straight AFC West titles with the Broncos and helped lead Denver to an AFC Championship and appearance in Super Bowl XLVIII following the 2013 campaign.
